本文旨在阐述布鲁诺·拉图尔对科学哲学中的能动性理论和方法论的贡献，并将其应用于考古学中的能动性研究。这些贡献包括了解世界的人工制品或表征是如何出现的、研究它们的最佳条件是什么以及如何理解它们所经历的变化过程。使用伊利诺伊州下游山谷的霍普韦尔墓葬进行的案例研究将证明该方法的应用。
This paper aims to describe Bruno Latour's contributions to the theory and methodology of agency in the Philosophy of Science and to apply them to the study of agency in archaeology. These contributions include an understanding of how artifacts or representations of the world emerge, what the best conditions to study them under are and how to understand the process of change they undergo. A case study using the Hopewell burial mounds of the Lower Illinois Valley will serve to demonstrate the application of this methodology.
